Apollo Brown's "The Brown Tape"
Back in 2000 while I was working at Rawkus Records, we were sitting around BS’ing about different industry rumors going around at the time. One that came up that stuck with me was about GZA’s album “Liquid Swords”. The A&R telling the story was saying he heard from a “reliable source” that GZA recorded the entire album’s vocals to RZA’s drum...

The Man With The Iron Fists soundtrack
This is what I have been working on the last couple months, A&R’ing this soundtrack. The track listing went out today and it is accurate, although I am hoping we can add a few surprises. As we start leaking more songs from it I’ll try to find time to write about how we put all these tracks together. So far the response has been great.

The making of Wu-Tang's "Meteor Hammer"
How did Ghostface Killah & Action Bronson get on the same track together? It’s a pretty common question that’s been asked about the Wu-Tang album “Legendary Weapons” and their song “Meteor Hammer” so let me shed some light. I first came across Bronson’s music on Nahright.com. The promo single artwork for a song called “Amuse Bouche” was what...

Working with the Rza, Wu-Affiliate Bronze Nazareth...
Both the Wu-Tang albums “Chamber Music” (2009) & last years “Legendary Weapons” were built by working with the Brooklyn soul band The Revelations. The majority of the beats for these albums were produced by Lil Fame, Noah Rubin & myself, sampling & chopping up the music the band played. It was our way of capturing the Rza sound, but also getting around paying...
